Bitcoin retreated from the previous high of $81,988, facing pressure, and early gains were profitably taken.

In the morning, the price briefly built a platform around $80,200, but was sharply pushed down by negative news, breaking through several recent support levels, with the lowest touching around $78,600, hitting a new low in this correction.
Subsequently, the market entered a bottoming oscillation and correction phase, with a rebound in the evening reaching up to $79,500 but failing to stabilize, currently consolidating around $79,000 in a narrow range.
Technically, the 4-hour chart shows a pattern of “breakdown accelerating decline - weak recovery at lows,” with the price trading below all short-term moving averages, MACD still showing a downward death cross, and RSI hovering around 35, indicating weak rebound momentum.
The area of $80,200–$80,500, which was broken yesterday, has now become a strong resistance zone, with short-term support at $78,600.
Liquidity weakens over the weekend, and market volatility is expected to narrow, likely oscillating within the range of $78,500–$79,800.
In terms of strategy, maintain a range-bound approach; aggressive traders can try long positions near the lower boundary and short positions near the upper boundary, while conservative traders may wait and see for clearer macro sentiment next week.
